Savage Feast Three Generations, Two Continents, and Dinner Table【電子書籍】[ Boris Fishman ]

＜p＞＜strong＞The acclaimed author of ＜em＞A Replacement Life＜/em＞ shifts between heartbreak and humor in this gorgeously told recipe-filled memoir. A story of family, immigration, and loveーand an epic mealー＜em＞Savage Feast＜/em＞ explores the challenges of navigating two cultures from an unusual angle.＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞A revealing personal story and family memoir told through meals and recipes, ＜em＞Savage Feast＜/em＞ begins with Boris’s childhood in Soviet Belarus, where good food was often worth more than money. He describes the unlikely dish that brought his parents together and how years of Holocaust hunger left his grandmother so obsessed with bread that she always kept five loaves on hand. She was the stove magician and Boris’ grandfather the master black marketer who supplied her, evading at least one firing squad on the way. These spoils kept Boris’ familyーJews who lived under threat of discrimination and violenceーprovided-for and protected.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Despite its abundance, food becomes even more important in America, which Boris’ family reaches after an emigration through Vienna and Rome filled with marvel, despair, and bratwurst. How to remain connected to one’s roots while shedding their trauma? The ambrosial cooking of Oksana, Boris’s grandfather’s Ukrainian home aide, begins to show him the way. His quest takes him to a farm in the Hudson River Valley, the kitchen of a Russian restaurant on the Lower East Side, a Native American reservation in South Dakota, and back to Oksana’s kitchen in Brooklyn. His relationships with womenーtroubled, he realizes, for reasons that go back many generationsーunfold concurrently, finally bringing him, after many misadventures, to an American soulmate.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞Savage Feast＜/em＞ is Boris’ tribute to food, that secret passage to an intimate conversation about identity, belonging, family, displacement, and love.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
